Mike Peterson or Donnie Edwards... (1 Viewer)

[mektarus]

I currently have Bullocks and Peterson as my LB's ( ) but with Peterson's injury I have a dilemma. We have very short benches so I don't carry any backup IDP's, however, Donnie Edwards is available on our waiver wire (I know, it's definitely NOT an experts league). Our scoring is very tackle heavy (see my signature). Is it worth dropping Peterson and picking up Edwards?

TIA

Go with Mike Pete on this one. To many question marks with Donnie E.

I don't think there'll be much difference this season between the two. I'm really not worried about Schottenheimer taking Edwards off the field -- ever -- despite the sniping Edwards took this offseason. I think you're probably taking a chance starting Peterson this week -- he could re-injure that knee on any play and it's possible he may not even go. I don't think that's a smart risk with a stud option like Edwards available. If your benches are that shallow, it's unlikely anyone will pick up an injured Peterson for this week's games anyway; if you favor him over Edwards that much, you may have a shot at getting him back next week.

Here's to hoping it will be a tight race all season cause I own both, and Bulluck
